PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

#whatever. Don't forget to change your money to the local currency at the airport/train station. There were more problems with this on this cycle than I remember before.

Next rule - if you're afraid of heights, either try to get over your phobia (very difficult, which I know from being acrophobic) or trade off enough with your partner so that they, hopefully not having the same fear, can do any height related tasks.

# 14? Although not as common as in earlier races, you might face an eating challenge. These are rarely vegetarian friendly, or for that matter, diet friendly. Be prepared to gorge yourself on something that you would never dream of eating.

If the eating challenge is a Roadblock and you aren't good with meat, are on a diet, or are just a picky eater (like I am, perhaps due to Asperger's Syndrome), make your partner do it. If it's a Detour and any of the same conditions applies, skip it. If it's a Fast-Forward and you don't realize it until you get there, suck it up and start chowing down.

Rule #umpteen: Do whatever it takes to legally make things harder for other teams. U-turn them, block the elevator with your cart (i.e. the Guidos), just happen to stroll in front of the escalator as an opponent is trying to get by, etc.

Don't trust any other racer and make sure no other racer trusts you, that way, even if you are nice enough to share info, the other racers will have to verify what you told them and not just take your word for it. I can't really cite any instances where this has happened, but it's how I would run the race.
